Ann Arbor — Over the past couple weeks, Michigan coach John Beilein was waiting for his team to awaken from its offensive slumber.
That moment finally came in last Sunday’s rare win at Wisconsin, where the Wolverines torched the nets in a hot-shooting first half.
Now Beilein is hoping the blistering performance is not just an anomaly and carries over into Wednesday’s 6:30 p.m. matchup against Iowa at Crisler Center.
“That was the only game we played well (recently), so I hope that’s a trend,” Beilein said Tuesday. “I hope that was not just a fluke, but that would be nice if we could go and shoot — I think four of our last six games and we won 50 percent of them — we shot under 30 percent from 3 and we shot 50 or 60 percent from the foul line.
